This is the UFC 332 live blog for Roberto Soldic vs. Khaos Williams, the main card welterweight bout Saturday at Delta Center in Salt Lake City.
After a forgettable stint with ONE Championship, Soldic (21-4, 1 NC) makes his long-awaited UFC debut. Soldic was a force at 170 pounds during his run with KSW, winning the Polish promotion’s title twice and holding a knockout victory over future UFC middleweight champion Dricus du Plessis. He also won a title at 185 pounds when he defeated KSW legend Mamed Khalidov in 2021. “Robocop” has finished 18 of his 21 wins by KO/TKO.
Williams (16-5) snapped a two-fight skid—the first losing streak of his career—this past May with a first-round knockout over Nikolay Veretennikov. He is 7-4 in the UFC and known for his durability, making him the perfect opponent to welcome Soldic to the octagon.
